I found the course excellent overall - interesting and instructive. Deborah is a great presenter, explaining things clearly and at a suitable pace. I particularly like the way she presents alternative ways (shortcuts and menu choices) to achieve the same result. My only sugestion is that some supplied files should be checked for errors. For example, in the one for Lesson 50 the data to be added has a missing column (Regions)/ However it was fairly easy to work around the problems, and this didn’t detract significantly from the overall quality of the course.
